This blog is solely written to convey the many thoughts and feelings I, Alicia Marie, experience throughout my day to day life. Along the way, I hope to bring my readers something they can relate to. My purpose is to make people smile, and to cry (tears of joy, that is), and to make them feel like they're not alone in this world.

Blessed!

I may not go out with my friends here in Springfield like I should, or at all, but I have to admit something. I have some of the best internet friends that I could ever ask for. You ladies and gents have made me incredibly happy over the past few months. You've been so supportive, and for that I'm truly thankful!

The Lord has put certain people in my life during specific seasons that I believe He knew would help build me up in faith, friendship, and love. As I went throughout the day today ( the 2 year anniversary of Poppie's passing), I was given reminders that built me up emotionally. I was reminded that though I am weak, I am strong. I am beautiful and I loved. I was also reminded that love knows no boundaries, and friendship is an everlasting bond.

I've realized that some of the best friends I've had were ones that I rarely see, yet their friendship and love for me transcends beyond the distance between us. I will never understand what I have done to deserve such faithful, helpful, kind and loving friends, but I am SOOOO immensely blessed beyond measure!

So, thank you to those who have been here for me, supporting me through my funny, happy, sad, hormonal, and heart-breaking days. You truly are a blessing to me, and I can never express the love and gratitude that I have for you!

Always remember, As you have been for me, I will be here for you no matter what's going on in your life. I will be kind, and understanding. Most of all, I will show you the love and support you deserve...always!

About Me

I'm a 24 years old foster mom to three kiddos ages 3 and under. Not too long ago I felt that I knew what life was going to be like. I would have a full time job, 2 kids, a house, and two dogs. Like most things in life, we do not always get what we dream of, but I can say that I have been given more than I could ever imagine for myself. I'm here to share my experiences--the good, the bad, and the ugly--and in turn I hope to inspire you and bring hope to your life.
